#OnThisDay
1976
At 19 years, 141 days, Javed Miandad became the
youngest person to make a Test double-century. He
cracked 206 in only his third Test - he'd already made 163
in his first - as Pakistan racked up 565 for 9 in their first
innings in Karachi. It looked more than enough when New
Zealand fell to 195 for 6, but Warren Lees (152) and
Richard Hadlee (81) added a then national-record 186 for
the seventh wicket to ward off the follow-on, and a draw
was a formality after that. In all, 1585 runs were scored
for the loss of 31 wickets.
 
AMAZING the crowd

how long has it been that we have seen such a big appearance for a test match with Pakistan playing.
 
just goes to show you, if the team plays well fans will come and watch doesnt matter the format. But if you start losing to zimbabwe /Sri lanka ofcourse they will desert you. No one wants to sit 8 hours a day in 30+ degree weather to watch their team lose.
 
Most 100+ partnership by Pak in tests.
These two have the highest. This series has broken a lot of records :))
 
The crowd man. younis has to put on a show as big as the crowd and that is a triple century.
 
Thats what I am talking about. [MENTION=132954]Aman[/MENTION] [MENTION=133865]hussain.r97[/MENTION]

See the amount of reverse and how well they are playing it.

This is great stuff, but the question is can they do this consistently?
 
Legend

And people were saying leave him out the test series, he's one of the best test batsman around

Good to see more than 10 people around
 
500 up but that's not enough, we want a thousand.

WE WANT A THOUSAND!
 
WHAT DO WE WANT?

A THOUSAND RUNS!

WHEN DO WE WANT IT?

SOMETIME AROUND TEA ON THE FIFTH DAY PLEASE THANK YOU.

Time for the double ton
 
The Younis show continues. Yet another double century! On Halloween day he has certainly given the Aussie bowler nightmares.
 
Is this first time someone made 2 centuries then a double century in consecutive innings ? What about in all of history against the Aussies?
 
Anybody have a track of how many records :yk has broken in this series?
Becomes the oldest to score double.
 
I just can't understand how he runs quick for a single after being out there for 2 days.
